My first time creating a blog was both somewhat frustrating and also intriguing. Once I figured out some of the gadgets and layout of the website, I could more easily navigate and found I impressed myself with using this technology. In fact, I got a little 'hooked' on blogging and was working on the blog close to nine hours on the first day.
I liked how my initial blog turned out, but do not like the fact that I can't move around the gadgets on the sidebar as to the order that I would like them to be in. I was just adding to th blog as I saw things and then realized that I needed to have a sequence of how I wanted the items to be displayed (that Type A thing with organization). I also was catching up with adding module one requirements with module two and got out of sequence. Apparently with a blog, you can not change the posting order as it is by date and time of entry.
I would like to experiment with some of the other blog sites listed to see how the formatting and gadgets are displayed to see if one of these would be a better fit for a classroom setting in setting up an assessment activity. Jeanne/EC,WI

Jeanne,
You can re-arrange the side bar on your blog. Go to the edit screen for your blog and click on the Layout tab across the top. The sidebar topics are listed. You can click on any of them and drag them to the order in which you want them to appear. I've just rearranged my blog sidebar. Hope this helps.

Ah, so glad that your classmate has helped you...it looked very nicely in order to me. Now I see that you may have used the newly learned option.
You should be impressed with yourself!

I was just talking with my daughter, who is also a RN, and she was impressed that her 'mom' could know about this type of technology as she has never been 'blogging' before. Thanks Deb, I have been exploring and saw where I could drag and move my sidebar so as I add to my blog, I can rearrange and put similiar items together. Ahhh . . . the power of collaborative learning. Thanks. Jeanne
